Murua Winery

The Winery

When you have become a classic, there is only one way ahead – innovation. That is the philosophy of Bodegas Murua, a winery that only focuses on exquisite quality, with very low vine yields and very high self-exacting standards.

That is how we start work every morning at Murua, with very clear goals and focusing all our human and technological resources on a single aim: constant improvement, to continue making the best wines we could ever have made.

That is the way Bodegas Murua has worked since the Middle Ages at Elciego, in the Rioja Alavesa region, on the evolution of Rioja wine to conquer palates and markets, especially since the winery became part of Masaveu Bodegas in 1974.

The Landscape

Divided into eight areas with different varieties depending on the ‘terroir’, orientation, exposure to the sun, etc., the plots are located around the winery, where they evolve before our eyes and under our caring hands.

The Vineyard

Old, low yield vines are our most prized treasure. The star variety is Tempranillo, but we also grow a number of autochthonous white and red grape varieties including Graciano, Mazuelo, Viura, Malvasía and White Garnacha.
